On December 22, 2010 the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) issued a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking that would require private sector employers subject to the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA) to post a notice informing employees of their rights under the NLRA.
Among other things, the notice would state that employees have a right to act together to improve their wages and working conditions; to form, join, and assist a union; to bargain collectively; and to choose not to do any of these things. A copy of the notice would be available for employers at no charge from NLRB regional offices and on the board’s website. The public has until February 22, 2010 to offer comments and suggestions for the board to consider before finalizing the rule.
